WE wonder what has come lover the spirit" of Pixiey's dream. We remember a few years back when lie was one of the warmest admir- CTS and most enthusiastic supper ters of the "Plumed Knight" Then, according to the Argonaut Blaine was without a peer ill all the land ; now the same journal goes for him after the following fashion:
 Eastern journals are criticising Mr. Blaine for his contemplated European trip. We think it a wise and most judicious political move ment. He should first go to Rome, and having satisfactorily arranged with the Holy Father and Propa- ganda, he would be in condition to negotiate with the Roman bishops, priests and laity, for the Irish vote iii America. Ii he could get au- tlority from Parnell and Mir. Glad stone to declare, that in the event of his election, tLe administration might be d'ponded upon to Use it's influence for home rule in Ireland against England, he would be pro- vided with an unanswerable argu- mcnt to secure the vote of all the Irish Democrats and all the Ameri- can demagogues in the United States. The New York Star says, MT. Blaine Is going abroad to har- angue England for political effect in the United States When this most brilliant of Americans shall have conquered Romanism, he will be prepared to graz pie with the questions of Rum ard Rebellion. Our advice to him is to treat rum as q local and rebellion as dead issue, and to let the contest turn upon ROmaniSm alone"

Natural Flowers Neglected.

York Mail and Express
A number of girls standing in the rain in front
of an artificial flower manufactory on Houston
street attracted the attention of reporter one
morning last week Investigation proved that
they were in search of work and were waiting
for the boss" arrive. talk with ono of
the applicants disclosed the incredible extent of
the use of artificial flowers for personal adorn-
ment and decoration. Wealthy people who can
well afford to decorate their tables, reception
rooms and persons with the choicest natural
flowers use the clever limitations in preference
You see," said the pretty fower-maker,
"they are not only cheaper. but are less trouble,
more enduring and rule quite as beautiful.
Natural flowers soon wither. even when kept
we'll watered The water is Liable to drop upon
the delicate coverings of table. stand and man
tel or upon the expensive carpets, and besides
they have TO be renewed every morning. Then
ogain q decayine flower is offensive to q sensi-
tive nostril. Some ladies whose houses I have
decorated for q dinner or . reception have had
me arrange few of natural flowers
among the artificial to supply the perfume de-
sired. Some of the best work I did this year
was an artificial corsage bouquet. The delicate
tints and shades of a ladies' evening dress will
not justify her wearing natural flowers because
thew would stain. Many of tho pretty little
boutonnieces of violets and lilies of the valley
you see now often on q gentfemans coat are
artificial, snd the perfume is that of chemicals
